History of Google DeepMind Artificial Intelligence.

Deepmind artificial intelligence just taught itself to walk.  If it can teach itself to walk what else can it do?  Artificial intelligence will be changing business as well as our personal lives.  It is important to keep up to speed with AI to see how it could be changing your job.  If you are in transportation self driving vehicles will completely disrupt your industry.  You could either be out of a job or learn about self driving vehicles and get a new job that may not even exist today.  Google is doing amazing things with Deep Learning.



History of Google’s DeepMind

Google DeepMind artificial intelligence was founded in 2010 by Demis Hassabis, Shane Legg, and Mustafa Suleyman. The trio met at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit at University College London (UCL), where they shared a passion for artificial intelligence and its potential to benefit humanity.

DeepMind’s early work focused on training AI models to play classic Atari games. This was a challenging task, as the games required the AI to learn complex strategies from scratch, just by observing the pixels on the screen. However, DeepMind’s researchers were able to develop new reinforcement learning algorithms that allowed their AI models to master these games, often beating human experts.

In 2014, Google acquired DeepMind for a reported £400 million. This gave DeepMind access to Google’s vast computing resources and expertise in machine learning. As a result, DeepMind was able to scale its research efforts and make even more impressive breakthroughs.

One of DeepMind’s most notable achievements was the development of AlphaGo, a computer program that became the first to defeat a professional Go player. Go is a centuries-old board game that is considered to be one of the most complex games in the world. AlphaGo’s victory was a major milestone in AI research, as it demonstrated that AI could master even the most challenging games.

DeepMind has also made significant contributions to other areas of AI, such as computer vision, natural language processing, and robotics. For example, DeepMind’s researchers developed a deep learning algorithm that can accurately predict the structure of proteins, a task that was previously thought to be impossible for AI. This breakthrough could lead to new ways to develop drugs and treat diseases.

DeepMind is now one of the leading AI research laboratories in the world. It is committed to developing safe and beneficial AI that can help solve some of the world’s most pressing problems.

Here is a timeline of some of DeepMind’s most notable achievements:

  • 2010: DeepMind is founded in London.
  • 2013: DeepMind’s AI model achieves superhuman performance on a variety of Atari games.
  • 2014: Google acquires DeepMind.
  • 2016: AlphaGo defeats a professional Go player for the first time.
  • 2017: DeepMind’s AlphaFold algorithm accurately predicts the structure of proteins.
  • 2018: DeepMind’s AlphaZero achieves superhuman performance on a variety of games, including chess, Go, and shogi, without any prior knowledge of the rules.
  • 2019: DeepMind’s AlphaStar achieves superhuman performance on the real-time strategy game StarCraft II.

DeepMind’s research has had a major impact on the field of AI. Its breakthroughs have shown that AI can be used to solve some of the most challenging problems in the world, and have inspired other researchers to push the boundaries of what is possible with AI.

Current DeepMind research directions

DeepMind is currently working on a wide range of AI research projects, including:

  • Developing new algorithms for reinforcement learning, deep learning, and other machine learning techniques.
  • Applying AI to solve real-world problems in areas such as healthcare, climate change, and materials science.
  • Developing safe and reliable AI systems that can be used to benefit humanity.

DeepMind is committed to developing AI that is for the good of society. It has published a number of papers on the ethics of AI, and has called for the development of international norms and regulations to ensure that AI is used responsibly.
